Structural and Functional Shifts in Belowground Components Following Grass Invasion in a Tropical Savannah

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Our study reveals that the belowground component of Cerrado savannahs invaded by Urochloa brizantha is functionally and structurally different from that of non‐invaded areas. Invaded areas were dominated by the invader's fine roots and rhizomes, with reduced bud bank density.

Effects of Long‐Term Nutrient Addition on Leaf Metabolites, Herbivory, and Mycorrhizal Spores Associated With a Savannah Woody Species

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Given the importance of soil conditions for ecosystem functioning, fertilisation experiments are a valuable tool for assessing how systems respond to changes in soil properties. However, the effects of changes in nutrient availability on multitrophic interactions in savannah ecosystems of the Brazilian Cerrado are still scarce. We investigated

Insights on the Potential of Natural Regeneration to Restore Cerrado Open Ecosystems

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 9, September 2025.
The colonisation potential of native Cerrado species in degraded areas will depend on the remaining underground structures and not on seed rain from nearby conserved remnants. Effective restoration of the Cerrado will not be possible without active restoration, if the bud‐bank are not present in the system.

Burn them all? Use and efficacy of fire as a tool for grassland restoration

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 7, September 2025.
Grassland ecosystems have suffered significant degradation and restoring them is fundamental to fight against climate change and biodiversity loss. Fire is an important component in the evolution and management of grasslands worldwide and can potentially be used to restore grasslands. In this paper, we present a systematic literature review to know how

Islanded Islands: Dual Isolation Drive Distinctive and Threatened Floras of Neotropical Maritime Inselbergs

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 36, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Questions Inselbergs, isolated rock outcrops, support unique plant communities. Maritime inselbergs (MIs) experience transient isolation due to maritime fluctuations, creating harsh survival conditions. This study is the first to investigate the plant communities' patterns on MIs, comparing them with those on continental inselbergs (CIs).

Fronteira do Gado e a Melinis Minutiflora P. Beauv. (POACEAE):

Sustainability in Debate, 2015
Este artigo objetiva apresentar uma revisão da bibliografia que informa sobre a introdução de gramíneas exóticas, sobretudo de origem africana, no Cerrado goiano. A pecuária foi a principal atividade econômica de Goiás no século XIX e na primeira metade do século XX. Os campos do Cerrado goiano favoreceram o assentamento de parte da sociedade rancheira
